If you have a UV and CPL take the UV off and put the CPL on as the UV is pretty useless for protection if you have the CPL on top. Gear Listhttp://www.codastudios.com.au

B+W 72mm 72 mm MRC CPL Circular Polarizer Filter- Thanks Shouldn't be a problem, as long as its not a slim filter (let me clarify that...you can stack a slim B+W CPL filter provided its the outermost filter in the stack due to it not having any front threads). I'm not aware of any issues that would prevent stacking, other than a manufacturing defect, even with a different brand of filter...threads sizes are pretty much standard across the board. To be sure, try it with one of your UV filters (assuming that you have one). "Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son". - Dean Wormer

It may not be something you would do everyday but, alot of the famous landscape photogs do this all the time for a certain effect.

JimAskew Cream of the Crop More info | I have B+W 77MM UVA and a CP (slim version)...both are brass construction. When I stacked them I could not get them seperated again. So, I ordered a filter wrench from B+H and that solved the problem. I think the problem was I could not get a good grip on the slim CP. Jim -- I keep the Leica D-Lux 7 in the Glove Box just in case!

sapearl Cream of the Crop More info | Aug 24, 2008 08:46 | #6 You could certainly stack filters - I don't myself - so long as you don't vignette, and as Jim points you have filter wrench just in case. But keep in mind, the more glass you add on top of your lens, the greater the possibility for introducing a random reflection, flare, or even aberration. GEAR LIST
